Hermod

Io smiled at Stell, "We get the hose and hit them with ultiminate fire powa!" She said as Nessie grabbed it before she could. Io crossed her arms and pouted. "No fair, that was my idea."

((Bit confused. I know Io and Stell are in the Tree fort and I'm pretty sure Rosalind is there too. And the Malta crew is in the play scape fort. So if Kathode is in the tree fort wouldn't she have been spared the blast of water. ))

Io stared at the dwarf form Stell. "What the heck is that?" She asked confused.

Io smiled at Anna, "Doing it the hard way is so much more fun though." She called back to Anna, "If you do things the easy way you urgh-" She jumped to another branch and pulled her leg over the branch and pulled herseful up so she was over the top of the tree fort, "You never get to see the good veiw." She said spying on the play structure the boys had seemingly claimed as their own. She watched as one of them turned the snadbox into a mud pit and then Hal hiding behind Essex, "What a baby." She said, she wondered if Mini-E was outside as she pulled a bouncy ball out of her grey cat backpack. Disappointed when she couldn't find him she decided to chuck it at Schizo and then leap swing into the tree house through a window on the side. "Tah dah." She said with a flourish and she landed on both feet.

Io stared at Kathode, "Wow, that was cool!" She called as she pulled her way up the oak tree, "But as my mother says, can you stick it?" She called down as she pulled her way up. Her mother had always stressed that durring her acrobatics training. She leapt to the next branch and pulled herself further up and spying a tree fort up her. "Oh..." She said as she climbed towards it.

Io smiled at Kathode's taunts and took off after her at full speed, "You're on kitten!" She looked for a decent tree and found one in the middle of the yard. And anicent oak tree with plenty of branches and big leaves to provide shade, and places to hide. "Perfect." She said as she raced up to the tree and jumped up twice to get onto the first branch and start pulling herself up.

Io stared confused, had she just won that fight or lost? She blinked and turned to Rosalind and then Essex, "Can we go outside now? I want to climb something." She said hoping for some big trees.

She stared, "Why would you make a Troll-in-the-box, Jack-in-the-boxes are such baby toys." She said with a small smirk. "Want to make a rattle too? And a bottle?" She said focusing on the words she understood, she was pretty sure he had made up Calculus to sound smart, but it sounded like a smart word. She made a note to use it later.

Io stared at Experiment and looked at her hands. "No... no way... no, I'd remember that. I was always a girl, there's no way I was ever a boy. I would remember that, I know I would." She said a bit defensively. "What would you know, like your toy said, you're stupid." She said falling back on her instant retort.

Io got up and patted her denim dress off. "No Miss. Essek, the girls told me all boys were dumb. They have a deseisesese called Cootie. It turns pretty girls into dumb boys." She said following her, "I know, Sister Iris told me, she's way smart."

Io nuged Rosalind and whispered, "I think you are right. He stupid." She said with a smile when one of the boys attacked Miss Essex. "HEY!" She yelled as she saw nothing happen to Essex she glared at Radeator. "All boys are stupid." She mumbled, "Especially ones with powers..." She said sitting down on a bit of blanket that Virelai had wrapped herself in. She looked under the bed, "You okay?" She asked.

Io blinked at the puff ball wondering how she did that. "No, not seekers a seeker. You know, the person who looks for you when you play Hide and go Seek." Io said looking at the frisbee and smiled, oh that was going to be fun to watch. She hoped Static gave it a good chase before enevitably being hit. Io crawled out completely from under the bed and sat down with her asorted friends.

Io smiled at Rosalind and Virelai. "Yeah, we'll get him when Miss Essek isn't watching." She said grinning ear to ear. She was starting to like this place she had found several people she already thought of as friends and some of them like to hide. She decided that she should get them all to play a game of Hide and Seek with Miss Essek. Io didn't think it was too important to tell Essex that they were going to be playing though, or that she'd be the seeker. "So what kind of games do you guys like playing here?" She asked.

Io blinked at the band-aid. "You tripped me?" She asked. Well the girl had appologised, and she wasn't one of the stupid boys so she could forgive her. "Alright. I forgive you." She said as she took the band aid and put it on her knee with a bit of effort underneth the bed. It didn't actually need it, but it was a pretty band aid with all sorts of pictures on it so it deserved to be put on. She smiled at her new friend.

Io blinked at the girl as she ran off. She smiled, at least someone appercated what she had done. She turned and ran after Virelai. She caught up with her crawling under a bed, "You welcome." Io said with a smile, "If you want I could hit him again." She said happily. She looked around the cool area underneth the bed, "Mmm, do you like hiding too?"

Io had her arms crossed as she followed Miss. Essex. The rules to her were, well she'd put it like this, the stupid boys aren't worthy of my help! She smiled a bit when Rosalind meantioned beating up the boys side. "You bet we could." She said despite the fact no one had said anything to her. She looked in the room and took it in. She looked for a place where she'd be as far away as possibe from the door to sleep. She walked in and poked around curiously looking for anything she could throw easily. Better yet, anything to hide under, Io's favorite game was hide and seek. She played it all the time, though ussually just with her mother, even if she didn't know she was playing. She smiled when she noticed all the beds were elevated, perfect for hiding under.

Io struggled in Archlich's hands as she tried to get at Static. He put her down and she crossed her arms and glared at him. She put her toy sword away and looked around the table. She looked at Ghoul who had just declared himself king of the playyard or soemthing stupid like that. "I'm Io. Sister Io and I'm a assassain." It was somewhat distrubing that she could perfectly pronounce assassain. She reached foward and grabbed a carrot stick which she munched on displaying a few gaps in her teeth. "And stoopid boys like him," She pointed at Static and then Ghoul for no appearant reason, "I hurt." She said with defiences and then sat down and munched on her carrot stick.

Io contined to beat the cause of the shock senseless. Though if you were to ask her she'd make it clear that he was senseless before she got there.

Io was trying to give the badly crumpled papers to Essex who was obviously busy. She tried her best only to suddenly be shocked by Static. She fell backwards and convulsed for a moment and then slowly got up to find the papers starting to burn. She freaked out and pounded the fire out. She looked at the trashed papers and started to cry. She glared at the source of the attack through her tears and whipped out a plastic sword. She got up and charged at him, "STUPID BOYS!" She screamed as she started pounding the source of the attack relentless through her tears. Her papers had been almost destroyed and now mother and the care takers would be angry and it was all his fault.

It sounded like the fighting had settled down. Io cleaned up the Jacks and put them back into their bag which she put in her dress' pocket. She crawled out dragging her stained blanket and looked around, the fight had ended. She pulled out the crumpled papers and walked up to Essex, "Escuse me?" She said, "Papers." She held them up for Essex. They were the papers Brightstar needed to be filled out for a new drop off. The papers indicated she'd be picked up.

((I really don't know if I want to stick with Io. So I'm leaving an option for a decnet write out.))

((Excuse my impatients))

Io heard the voice and looked around for the source. She got up and stepped carefully on her rug burned knee. She looked for her assailant and couldn't spott hem before Essex herded her to the room with everyone else. She looked around and walked up and found a seat. Her knee hurt and she noticed the food was all sorts of healthy stuff. She frowned. She knew it was good for her and it would let her grow up to be a big and strong assassain, but still...

Starting your day with two big disappointments Io was upset. She put the papers on the table and noticed that she had slightly crinkled them and set about trying to straighten them so the caretaker wouldn't be mad. This was going to be a bad, bad day. She turned around to see the fight starting all over the place and decided it might be a good idea to wait them out.

Io crawled under the table and stopped, reached up and grabbed a juice box and then crawled back into hiding. She reached into her cat shaped back pack and pulled out her bag of jacks and threw them about herself to slow any of the many attackers down. ((In the great traditon of the KoA, always put down your caltrops first )) She then pulled out a small blanket and set it down to sit on and cuddle to releave her pent up sadness. She poked the top of the juice box and spilled a bit on her blanket and held back a few tears as she tried to dry it, today was going to be a bad day. She sucked on the juice box and stuck out her tounge, Grape. A very, very bad day.

((Damn that was fast. Yeah, she's a Knife. I made her simply because I've never seen one Roleplayed before.))

((Taking all bets! Which enemy group in CoH and CoV is Sister Io from? The winner gets absolutely nothing! Everybody plays! Only I win! ))

A young girl with dark blond hair and olive skin stood in the door frame as it mysteriously opened. She was wearing a purple shirt and had a jean dress with over all straps. A grey kitten bag was strapped over her shoulder. In her hand was a few paper that had been filled out by a quick hand. "Hello?" Her name was Io, though she called herself Sister Io more often than not. "Anybudy here?" She asked as she suddenly felt herself tripped by Ani's trip cord. She hit the ground sprawled and then stopped cold for a moment before grabbing her rug burned knee and cry.

Interesting idea. I actually have a Hero who would fit that theme. He lost his powers durring the Rikti War though, so it would be an interesting place for him to end up.
